Your Town Planning & Design Studies Handbook
  This handbook, developed by Dr. James A. Segedy, serves as a guide for those interested in using a community-based planning approach to solve existing problems and plan for the future.  This step-by-step guide takes a user through such techniques as the L.A.N.D. analysis, a quality-of-life assessment, issue identification, needs assessment, visioning and visualization, strategic planning, consensus building, and communication and network enhancement.  The charrette workshop process is also outlined, with a how-to guide for those conducting such a workshop.  The handbook is organized around 5 easy-to-understand planning process questions:
  • Who are we?
  • Where are we going?
  • Where do we want to go?
  • How do we get there?
  • How are we doing?
